§ 21601 Junk Dealer Definition

• •A 'junk dealer' is someone who buys, sells, or collects junk as a job.
• •It also includes people who run a junk yard or store junk to sell later.
• •Even if you travel around to collect junk, you’re still a junk dealer under this law.

If you have a yard where you collect old cars, broken appliances, and scrap metal to sell, you are a junk dealer.

This law says that if you gather junk to sell or store it for selling later, you fit the definition of a junk dealer.
